The next day was Sat.u.r.day.
Su Yutan never expected that she was still worried about it yesterday, but now she had the surprising news so soon.
A staff named Alice from the Xinhai Reproductive Service Center suddenly contacted her and told her: "The egg you donated has been combined with a gentleman"s reproductive cells and developed into an 8-week-old fetus. But now the child"s intended adoptive mother died unexpectedly … "
Alice also said that the child"s original foster mother was Winnie, who had a genetic mutation.
Winnie fell in love with her nanny robot and upgraded the nanny robot into a companion robot. She married him.
Real people and robots "marriage" are not prohibited by law, but they are not recognized. This was a debatable area.
Winnie wanted a child, but her own germ cells could not be used, and the robot "husband" also needed a donor. So they could only use donated gene cells from a man and a woman.
The embryo was successfully implanted into the in vitro fertilization trough. Winnie took a long vacation, traveling around the planet with the robot "husband" and enjoying the days of a couple, but she died unexpectedly during a s.p.a.cewalk.
When she heard the news, Su Yutan was a little embarra.s.sed.
The first thought was: Do I have a child?
The second thought was: The child"s intended adoptive mother died, and the companion robot was not eligible to adopt a child. What would they do with the child?
As a social worker with a professional qualification, she immediately thought of the relevant laws,
If a child raised from a donated egg (or sperm) has a fostering parent who could not adopt him before the birth, the child"s biological parent has priority for adoption.
Her heart suddenly jumped: She and her baby"s biological father both have the right to adopt? Who will adopt the child?
Immediately afterward, her mood sank again quickly.
The prerequisite to exercise the right to priority adoption was that the adopter should hold the Parental Qualification Certificate.
It was impossible for her to get the "Parental Qualification Certificate." How could she adopt this child?
It was difficult for Su Yutan to tell what was in her heart.
But no matter what, she wanted to look at the child first, to see what kind of biological father the child had.
She told Milo to keep the matter secret, and quickly changed out of her clothes, picked up her bag and took her flying saucer to Xinhai Reproductive Service Center.
The reproductive service center was very close to the Sunshine City community. Within a quarter of an hour, Su Yutan was sitting in Alice"s office.
Alice was a middle-aged lady with a slightly fat build and a very easy-going att.i.tude paired with a lovely smile.
On behalf of the Reproductive Service Center, she thanked Su Yutan for her donation of eggs and explained her "priority of adoption" again.
She emphasized, "From a chromosomal perspective, this child is a girl, and we tend it for a female child to be raised by the child"s mother.
"But "priority of adoption" is your right, not an obligation."
"That is to say; you have no responsibility to adopt this child. If you give up adoption, you will not be adversely affected. Your social credit rating will not be lowered, and you will not need to pay maintenance for the child. Understand?"
Su Yutan nodded, "I understand."
The Reproductive Service Center accepts donations from gene cells. It tests donors for biological diagnosis, talent level, and propensity tests, and does not care about the sociological information of the donor. Therefore, Alice must have no knowledge of her condition.
"Then do you have the will to adopt this child?" Alice asked her.
Su Yutan Ke restrained her inner hesitation and regret, and said stiffly, "I"m afraid it"s not convenient."
Alice smiled and comforted her. "Relax, girl! You just donated an egg and did a good deed. You should not hold any psychological burden at all. If a young girl like you is not ready to be a mother, it"s okay. Is it that you don"t have a Parental Qualification Card yet? "
Su Yutan nodded: "Yes. I don"t." And never will, Su Yutan added in her heart.
"Then do you wish to see the child and the biological father of the child?" Alice still smiled very easily. "It"s your right."
Su Yutan nodded, "Yes."
"Then wait for a moment; the biological father of the child is coming over. When he comes, I will take you both to see the child."
Su Yutan had a little more appreciation for her child"s biological father. He came as soon as he heard the news, just like her.
Alice took out the paper doc.u.ments and electronic papers, stating that she had given up the adoption and asked her to sign.
Su Yutan signed her name, leaving her genetic print. Her fingers were trembling slightly.
A sudden knock sounded interrupting their meeting.
When Alice said, "Please come in," the door was gently opened.
Su Yutan turned her head and saw a 27-year-old man standing at the door.
He wore a black turtleneck undershirt and a dark gray casual suit. He was low-key, elegant, and upright.
His features were very delicate, the striking pair of dark eyes were particularly deep, and the eyelashes around the eyes are growing very densely.
Su Yutan could tell that this man has a calm and restrained temperament.
He was like the calm sea on a quiet night, with no waves, no sound, no one could see its depth and its limits, and no one dared to ignore its vastness and strength.
The man glanced at Su Yutan, showed a polite smile to Alice, and said, "I am Qiao w.a.n.gchuan."
Su Yutan thought this is the biological father of my child?
Alice introduced Su Yutan and Qiao w.a.n.gchuan to each other.
An unfamiliar man and woman who already have a child with each other shook their hands and said h.e.l.lo to each other very politely.
Su Yutan, this situation is slightly weird.
Qiao w.a.n.gchuan moved the chair back before sitting on it.
His two long legs stretched forward very leisurely.
